This project salvages the existing brick as much as possible and also replaces the existing storefront windows with new energy-efficient glazing, frames with steel mullions to match the pattern of the original window. This project also backs to its former life brought by the use of mid-century materials such as cork flooring, stained wood paneling, and vintage brick. The details through those materials also make it possible to update the original low ceiling and raising it to achieve eight-foot ceiling heights with a seamless transition both inside and out.

This modern and multifunctional hall have wardrobes, strength training rooms, and also two gymnasiums. With its large size and those facilities, this hall can accommodate more people.
